150 Mixed Doubles Regroup
◎Like a tall and stern god.◎
This answer really surprised Song Linzhou.
He felt that Zhu Qi had deep feelings for the national team.
Including Song Linzhou himself, these athletes have already regarded the national team as their home.
From 15 years old to 30 years old in the future.
The purest, simplest and most youthful time in life is spent on Tiantan East Road.
Although Song Linzhou himself knew that he was about to reach retirement age, the thought of leaving the national team was as painful as cutting flesh from his own body.
Even when Gao Xiaofeng retired and returned to his hometown, he cried in the dormitory.
Although he was later transferred back by Ren Xinhua to be a coach, it was also because Gao Xiaofeng himself was reluctant to leave the place where he had struggled for the first half of his life.
Zhu Qi’s idea was also very simple.
After her rebirth, she played a great role in the national team.
The twelve dark years of Chinese table tennis no longer exist.
Everything seems to be moving in a better direction.
She now needs a double circle grand slam, and then bring out A Shui, Zuo Zuo, You You, and Xiao Lingling.
After training the next flag bearer for the national team, my mission will be accomplished.
From the time Zhu Qi started playing basketball at the age of six until now, he has been diligent in training every day and has given his all in every game.
Zhu Qi felt that he had devoted himself to his work.
"Everything is going well with the national team now. We are making technical breakthroughs and the young players are developing step by step. I want to go home and spend time with my family." Zhu Qi said calmly, but he also expressed his concerns.
It would be a good idea for Maomao to stay in the national team as a coach.
Zhu Qi also has confidence in Maomao, and believes that he will definitely be no worse than himself as a coach.
My aunt's health is getting worse every year.
Zhu Qi originally wanted to find a shop for his aunt to open so that she could pass the time, but his aunt worked so hard and seriously that she ended up exhausted.
Things got better only after Zhu Qi hired two sales clerks to help his aunt and younger sister-in-law, sharing some of the burden of running the store.
My uncle has been driving a taxi for so many years that he has a lot of occupational diseases. He was diagnosed with osteoporosis some time ago.
As people age, many health problems arise.
The two children in the family are still not at home. As the millennium passed, every household started to install broadband and buy new mobile phones.
The cell phone that He Qianlu had given Zhu Qi was no longer usable. Zhu Qi had already switched to a flip phone, but his uncle and aunt were still using their cell phones and the landline at home because they didn't know how to use the nine-square layout of the flip phone.
If there are no young people in a family, the elderly in the family will easily become disconnected from society.
I have been in the national team for 10 years.
It took only nine years from the time Zhu Qi went to his uncle's house at the age of six to the time he joined the national team at the age of 15.
Every time she went home, her aunt would cry.
Then I left home to return to the national team, and my aunt started crying again.
Sometimes when Zhu Qi looked at his aunt's slightly gray hair, he would think of his deceased mother.
In addition, seeing how A Shui interacted with her mother, and how A Shui snuggled in her mother's arms and acted coquettishly, Zhu Qi also felt like missing her hometown.
From the age of 4 in her previous life until now, even after being reborn, she still behaves like a little adult and has forgotten what it feels like to be someone else's daughter.
Zhu Qi said to himself in his heart.
It would be great if the national team doesn't need her to do anything in the future. She can stay at home with her family and enjoy the life she has never enjoyed in two lifetimes.
But if the national team still needs her in the future, she will come back...

After hearing Zhu Qi say that he wanted to return to the provincial team after retirement, A Shui simply refused to do so. He sat down beside Mao Mao's bed and hugged Zhu Qi.
"You're going back to the provincial team? Why? Well, the national team is so tiring. The provincial team has less pressure and you can go home more often... But if you go back to Jianghuai Province, won't it be hard to see you?"
Ah Shui talked a lot, and Zhu Qi's mind was spinning as he listened.
In fact, this is just Zhu Qi's current idea. If his uncle and others are willing to move to Chaojing in the future, Zhu Qi can continue to stay in the national team.
Although it has been difficult to be both loyal and filial since ancient times, a compromise can always be found.
The cat's back injury is getting better. A while ago, it was hard for her to turn over on her own. Now she can walk normally, but she still can't do high-intensity training. Now she can only lie on the bed, with a red-light fumigation machine covering her waist. The light is aimed at the injured area of the cat's back, emitting billowing heat waves.
Her skin was flushed red. Maomao buried her face in the pillow, revealing a pair of eyes as she stared at her two younger sisters sitting beside the bed. She sighed, "I guess this is my last term. Chairman Ren mentioned this when he came to see me the day before yesterday. He asked if I wanted to stay in Chaojing after retirement and accept arrangements. It doesn't really matter to me, since we're all in this circle anyway. But..."
However, Maomao still felt a little unwilling.
I haven't reached the point where I can't fight anymore. I always feel like I can still give it another try.
At least for the World Games in August... Maomao feels that she cannot be assured given the current development of the players in the team.
For the national team, they must ensure that a Chinese person emerges from each half of the singles draw.
It would be best if both Chinese players could reach the finals, so that the championship can remain in China.
The last time he failed to defeat Xi Ling'en and advance to the finals, which led to his loss in the semi-finals, Maomao has always blamed himself...
Seeing that Maomao was silent, Zhu Qi could empathize with Maomao's current thoughts. He said, as a way of comforting Maomao and also to himself, "Actually, after watching Jin Lili's recent matches, I'm actually quite envious of her form. Ever since we joined the national team, we've known we wanted to win championships and gold medals, and almost every match was a struggle for this goal. But the human body will always tire and become exhausted, and young athletes will rise one after another. They need to have better physical fitness and better development prospects, and the pressure of keeping the championship in China will fall on them. And for some athletes who have already won honors and realized their personal values, enjoying the competition is also a pleasure."
Of course, cats know this too.
But no matter what, Maomao still wants to compete in an individual event at this Riyadh World Games.
If his waist injury doesn't recover soon, I'm afraid Maomao can only play in a team, and he may not even have a chance to play in doubles.
For the national team, the competitions in the first half of each World Games are very important.
Because the coaches will decide the roster for August based on the performance during this period.
Maomao's back injury has not yet fully recovered, but he returned to the training hall to start rehabilitation training.
Coach Cun watched carefully from the side, afraid that the cat would move too much and pull its waist which had finally been able to move.
Later, he found that just watching was useless, so Coach Cun took a climbing belt given by a friend, tied it around the cat into a triangle and then stretched it.
Because the activity area is limited, the cat must let the opponent hit the ball to the position it wants.
In this way, this "rope pulling training method" can not only help the cat stabilize the waist to prevent secondary strain, but also strengthen the cat's ball control ability.
As the head coach who has been with Maomao since she first joined the national team, Coach Cun feels that it has not been easy for Maomao to come this far.
Watching Maomao gritting his teeth and enduring the pain to swing the racket again and again for rehabilitation training, Coach Cun made a "pause" gesture, brought Maomao a bottle of water and asked about his physical condition.
Maomao wiped the sweat off her face and tried to stand up straight, but the pain in her waist still made her frown. Despite this, she still said stubbornly, "It's okay, everything is normal."
Coach Cun naturally understood whether he was okay or not, and sighed: "Actually, I know what you're thinking..."
As soon as the words were spoken.
Coach Cun also choked up a little.
Looking at the grown-up Maomao now, Coach Cun still remembers when Maomao joined the national team after finishing the youth training camp. Maomao stood out among the players at that time because of his slender height.
In fact, Coach Cun had told the youth academy coaches at the time that Maomao was injured, but Maomao maintained a high level of training when he first joined the national team. He even won first place in the first round-robin tournament between the first and second teams. Maomao also pretended to be nonchalant despite his still-unhealed shoulder injury, fearing that the first team coaches would find out and not select him.
As a result, his insistence on competing worsened his shoulder injury.
At that time, even Maomao himself felt that it was difficult to participate in the World Games.
At that time, Chang Hongxia was at the peak of her career, Ding Shushu also had stable skills and rich competition experience, and the younger Jin Lili was beginning to emerge.
Maomao can only play every game he has as well as possible.
To be able to play until now and face participating in the World Games for the third time, if it were the 18-year-old Maomao and Coach Cun at the time, they would have thought it was a fantasy.
In the Asian competitions in the first half of last year and the National Table Tennis Championships in the second half, A Shui performed very well. Although he is left-handed, he is not inferior to right-handed players of the same level.
Since starting to practice right-handed ball, A Shui's ball skills have improved by leaps and bounds.
Now that Maomao's back injury is so serious, many coaches think that Ren Xinhua might let A Shui and Zhu Qi play in this singles match.
Seeing that Coach Cun seemed to be hesitant to speak, Maomao put down the towel in his hand and comforted his coach: "No matter what, I want to compete in singles and defend the half of the zone that Moscow didn't defend!"
Hearing Maomao say this, Coach Cun didn't know what to say and could only nod to show his support for all the decisions made by his apprentice.

Everyone is in emergency training.
Although the swelling in Zhu Qi's right foot has subsided, he still feels some soreness every time he pushes off the ground hard. As a result, he can only improve his backhand loop shot.
Xu Dong stood by and threw the ball to Zhu Qi, while talking about the recent event schedule.
"The Korea Open is in March, and there's a national team tournament in April. The Ping Tiao League is scheduled to be held in Shanghai this time, starting in June... Oh, and Chairman Ren said he'd arrange two women's doubles and mixed doubles matches for you. Women's doubles will be with Zuo Zuo and Xiao Lingdang, and mixed doubles... I'll play against Da Ling."
Zhu Qi's hands were a little sore, and he missed the ball and hit it out.
While Xiao Lingdang was chasing the ball across the street, Zhu Qi looked at Xu Dong with some confusion: "Why are you asking me to practice mixed doubles now? It's been so long since I played doubles..."
Last year, A Shui and Qin Xiaoba played mixed doubles together for a year and their results were pretty good.
Although he won three silver medals, he won gold medals in most important competitions.
Zhu Qi originally thought that A Shui and Qin Xiaoba might be able to compete in the mixed doubles at this World Games.
But Ren Xinhua actually made such an arrangement, probably because he felt that the mixed doubles pair of A Shui and Qin Xiaoba were not sure of winning.
Xu Dong cleaned up the scattered ball bowls nearby while saying, "Hey, the cat hasn't fully recovered yet, so I asked you to take care of the kids. After all, these two are still young and need more experience..."
Although it is an experience.
But Zhu Qi felt that Xu Dong had something else in mind.
Under normal circumstances, the opportunity to compete should naturally be given to the most suitable person.
Zhu Qi and Song Linzhou haven't played mixed doubles for two or three years. A Shui and Qin Xiaoba have also been vigorously training for the next mixed doubles since they returned from Moscow.
We have also played in several competitions together. Whether it is the tacit understanding or the overall personal level, we should be able to play in world-class competitions.
If there is any problem.
The coaches on both sides should start negotiating early and then make targeted improvements.
Why is it that in this year when the World Games are approaching, I feel that A Shui and Qin Xiaoba are still a little short of their potential?
When he thought of this, Zhu Qi's coaching DNA started to move.
Putting himself in their shoes, when Zhu Qi thought about the problem from the perspective of the coaching staff, he also began to pay more attention to the mixed doubles training of A Shui and Qin Xiaoba.
This would have been fine if I hadn't observed it, but once I did, I found that Ren Xinhua also often stood on the second floor watching A Shui and Qin Xiaoba's training.
Ren Xinhua is in very poor health now. As he gets older, his stomach problems recur every three or four months. He has to take a lot of medicine to get relief every time. He usually doesn't touch any raw or cold food.
Although Ren Xinhua still patrols the field every day to check on the players' training as before, he also checks in batches and does not stand on the second floor to watch the training all the time.
But every time A Shui and Qin Xiaoba practiced mixed doubles, Ren Xinhua would always stand on the second floor.
It's like a tall and stern statue.
She looked down at the group of children on the first floor with her eyes that were full of wisdom from the times.
